Something's Brewing...

...and I doubt that it is tea. From the Vatican Bolletino:

We inform accredited journalists that tomorrow, Tuesday 20 October 2009, at 11am, in the John Paul II Hall of the Press Office of the Holy See, a briefing will be held on a theme pertaining to the relationship with the Anglicans, at which His Eminence Cardinal William Joseph Levada, Prefect of the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, and His Excellency Mgr Joseph Augustine Di Noia OP, Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments will take part.

Oooooooh. I wonder what's up? Maybe the Archbishop of Canterbury wants to convert... Or maybe, after all the stuff on women priests and bishops, etc. etc. the end of "ecumenism" is about to be announced...

Twitch of the mantilla to His Hermeneuticalness.

Given a recent comment ascribed to her, I wonder if the Queen's going to convert?

I think ecumenism has been given a bad name, since we particularly associate it with Anglicanism. Ecumenism with the Orthodox however = :D :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvegX1ta74M

We can hopefully focus more of our efforts on those we are actually doctrinally and spiritually closer too.
